I notice lots of folks signed up here, and haven't been back for months
I believe at the time they signed up, the forum wasn't really active as it was small, so there wasn't much postings to comment on
I think with this being a holiday, the board can send out a mass-greetings-message to all members
Something like
"Hello BGO member
we at BGO would like to wish you a Merry Christmas/Happy Holidays
Since we opened, we've been growing
If you haven't visited in a while, the BGO family would like to invite you back
We have grown, many new topics to discuss, many new members
Find out about activities in your State or town
Meet other members from your area
Blah blah blah , blah blah blah, bla blaaaaa..... "
just thinking out loud..

I send out a similar message every thirty days of inactive members. Finish this message and I'll send it out to them and the 35+ other acct's I deactivated because of inactivity.

I personally think that a lot of people signed up just too spy on us.

Yeah, I'm mostly here for the spying and trolling, but I figured I could get away with it if I keep things low-key.   I'm also trying to gain a little perspective. If you can see my IP you'll know what I mean.

Thats a pretty good idea MIB and Trig. Bersa is of course correct in thinking that some people ( a very small number) just signed up to see what was going on.....
